**WINTER OF WOE - BONUS OBJECTIVE POINT**
As previously announced, the team will be distributing an additional point toward milestones to anyone who completed the Absorbing Man fight in the first step of the Winter of Woe.
This point will be distributed at a later time as it requires the team to pull and analyze data.
The timeline has not been set, but work has started.

There is currently an issue where some Alliances are are unable to find a match in Alliance Wars, or are receiving Byes without getting the benefits of the Win. We will be adjusting the Season Points of the Alliances that are affected within the coming weeks, and will be working to compensate them for their missed Per War rewards as well.
Additionally, we are working to address an issue where new Members of an Alliance are unable to place Defenders for the next War after joining. We are working to address this, but it will require a future update.

Imo the backlash from 12.0 is nothing compared to what is about to happen because of war.
Moving the start time back 4 hours for your alliance, might be ideal, but that doesn’t mean it’s ideal for all alliances (or 80% as you suggested). Many alliances started around 6-7pm est. this still wouldn’t appeal to them.
In AQ, you coordinate time to take down links. In AW, you coordinate time AND resources (boosts) to take down paths. That’s a huge difference and we’re confined to a tighter time window and it being more costly.
If we are keeping this timing system for AW, I recommend increasing the energy cap from 5 to 10.
For a lot of us, being in an alliance is more than just about playing the game, there is a huge social aspect to it. It's not just about having 29 other random people available to clear a node so you can move. Many of us have developed friendships thru our in game alliances, and this change is really putting a stress on that.
This right now isn't fun. Thinking about having to make sure folks are awake 3 days a week and ready to kill bosses between before 11am Eastern (worse for other US time zones) while getting ready for work, getting kids to school. Not fun.
On top of that, the rewards aren't even worth it for the effort it takes to coordinate a Plat 3 alliance. Get all these great rewards and glory from AQ, then sink the glory into AW pots instead of rank up materials? Juice is not worth the squeeze.
If anything, rewards have only gotten worse since AW started. Rewards haven’t increase but nodes have gotten harder. Also T5B is becoming more accessible, especially with it being introduced into the glory store. Now there’s a time constraint.... No thanks, not worth it.
Just an idea. Might have already been suggested, but I don't have time to scan 22 pages of complaints. The fixed start times are problematic. Increasing the phases > 24 hr in length could help alleviate the problems and still reduce the possibility of gaming the matchmaking system.
Actually Kabam needs to fix this mess, not us!
I'm in the same situation. If we're not allowed to start AW in a timeframe that is good for all US and EU members , our alliance (top gold 2 - going to gold 1) won't participate to AW anymore.
I managed to enter war with 2:30 minutes left, fight the boss and just needed an extra second for that victory screen to have counted as a boss defeated, as the KO punch arrived just a moment after the clock had ticked 0:00.
Don't know how Kabam think that the ability of an alliance to choose the start time of their war is not an essential part of the organisation of 3 BGs across multiple time zones/continents
Just as we start to settle into new AW changes Kabam must rock the boat every time
We launched at the same time before these changes, Nooboroni, for the same reasons.
We assigned paths based on time zones and rosters. Now we're going to need to assign based on when attack launched every day and who's in what part of the world? Yeah, instead of having players running their usual paths that they're used to with minimum item usage, shake everything up and watch it rain items...
Might have wanted to save the Captain Marvel and Deadpool events for a few days after the new AW launch. All the good will created by those seems to have vanished quicker than Deadpool's hopes for a Romance synergy. And that's a real shame, because when you guys knock it out of the park, like you do with events like those and the recent reworkings of champs like Luke Cage, Red Hulk, Carnage and Venom, you guys really shine.
The note say sun, wed and Friday at 3pm pst
War attack start and end times are way more important than when you match and place defenders. Why didn't you just make the matchmaking later then have the 4 hour early start times land between 11:00am - 3:00pm PST? Then everyone would at least be close to same schedule they were already on.
@Kabam Lyra
But you can Enroll today for the Sunday war.
We only run 2 group wars, so wondering if Kabam changed it to Matching 1 and 2 group wars first this time, instead of matching 3 group wars first which seemed to be the case on Wed. ??? Trying to push back the primary.3 group matching a little bit because of all the outrage ?
Looks like it
Samething happened to us war ended, match making started right after which barred us from this war.
This new system is a mess, didn't even give us any time to start a new one.
I don't think that is the case my alliance enrolled in that war, we finished it then almost immediately after that ended match making started baring us from Sundays war
The current war situation is nearly as detrimental as the overheating phones issue that delayed season 3
